    Juyoung’s reaction is mine when GOT the beat was announced. XD Step Back is such an interesting trip. I remember being really hyped when they performed this song during the free SM online concert and when the official stage video was released. The bizarre chant at the beginning makes the song incredibly eerie, but it gives the feeling of intimidation before an epic showdown, which does fit the message of the song. And the vocals were exquisite, though the lyrics could have been about telling the haters and the anti-fans to step back rather than a possessive girlfriend telling other women to step back from her man. All these women have endured extremely unnecessary criticism in their careers as K-Pop idols and the lyrics easily could have reflected that. I hope we get another song from GOT the beat in the future, especially one with more empowering lyrics like Girls on Top by BoA. There’s a lot of potential for a comeback at any time since unlike SuperM, they don’t need to worry about military service. Plus, GOT the beat has idols from *all four* K-Pop generations and idols from all the current female SM artists (though I wish f(x) could have been here too T^T). To do only one song and completely forget about this supergroup would be such a missed opportunity.

    I think the spooky sample and the collection of 1-4 gen gg members lends itself AMAZINGLY well to a female vampire concept. When they release an MV they can avoid the backlash from the misogynist lyrics by having the GOT members fight over a man for his blood as vampires rather than for "love".

    Considering how controversial the lyrics are, I think the way the music was done was absolutely on purpose. Now that it's being mentioned that the end bit just sounds so weird, creepy and eerie, when taking a look at the lyrics it makes a whole world of sense as to why the song itself is like that. The lyrics are basically about a girl telling another girl to step back from her man otherwise she's gonna get really nasty if she doesn't and using that weird creepy section in different parts of the song makes it make the first girl's words seem more... threatening I think. It's been a while since I looked at the lyrics and thought about this song so I could be wrong, but from a general standpoint, I think it makes some more sense to me now. Did I wish that this song was more about something more empowering rather than what it is? Yeah, but we can't have everything in the world unfortunately.

Makes a lot of sense knowing the lyrics😁 don't mess with these girls. It was interesting to hear about a plagal sequence. So they are bringing the church feeling not only with the chants.

    You guys need to react to DPR Ian’s new MV. He has some orchestral elements to it that is right up your alley. Plus he’s so talented because he composed, produced, directed, and edited it. He’s extremely talented. He’s usually in the background for other Korean artists but released music a couple years ago and is part of the DPR group.

    This might be an unpopular opinion or something, but the lyrics are fine (except for the silly girl part. that is corny af lmao). Someone telling another person to get off their significant other, who is clearly uncomfortable of being hit on, is okay. It has been done a lot of times. But if we apply it to the bigger picture (i.e. it was written for and sang by a female supergroup which is supposed to symbolize female empowerment and women coming together), it leaves a bad taste in people's mouths. We could've had a female anthem, but we essentially got a song about a woman fighting another woman. It's disappointing. So it's not the meaning that is bad, just the context on where the lyrics applies to. They could've chosen another lyrical theme for debuting a female supergroup.

    Well yeah, the context is the entire point. It's a group with with some of the biggest legends in the industry along with current high profile SM artists. These are the type of lyrics you would expect from a Gen 2 rookie group, possibly a b-side. I wouldn't expect it from THE title track for women who have no need to sing about how great their man is as the driving force for their empowerment. When was the last time any of them have even sung about that?

SM should've considered the fact that the ones who are about to sing it are one of the most anticipated FEMALE supergroups of all time. They (or anyone who is responsible for that lyrical theme) really missed the mark on that one. Better choices could've been made lmao

    I know people complained about the song lyrics, but I think they're letting their expectation unfairly get in the way of enjoying the song itself. It song SLAPS. And I think the powerful, combative feel of the song is intentional. And the distortion and dissonance feels both like bellicosity and a sign of madness. As for the lyrics, to me this was them trying a different type of girl boss than the usual. Because, if you think about it, boy groups have powerful songs asserting dominance over other boys and defending their place in a girl's life. All the time. We don't even notice. This is, literally, the girl version of this. So while this may not have been the 'girls are the best' song people were expecting, it is a girl power song. The hypothetical other girl in this is doubtless posing her pants after hearing this song. The song makes it clear that this hypothetical girl singing is top dog. And again, most importantly for me, this song is awesome. I got chills the first time I heard it and I never tire of playing it.

Hope the mixed reactions don't stop SM from pushing boundaries cuz to me they're in the direction, music needs to be creative Kpop world.
